Church Street Mural Project

Curator’s statement and project history: The Church Street Mural Project connects public spaces with community organizations and visual artists to reinforce and invigorate the Church-Wellesley Village’s historic identity. More than a dozen artists met with LGBTQ leaders, historians and long-term activists to capture the people, moments and ideas that continue to animate the Village. In addition to beautifying one of Toronto’s most iconic neighbourhoods, the Church Street Mural Project serves as one of the largest LGBTQ public art exhibits in the world.
